REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF INDIVIDUALS THAT FIT WELL WITH OUR COMPANY:
Experience in writing resumes, providing career consulting/coaching, and/or hiring/recruiting services. Such qualifications can be derived from a number of professional experiences. As such, writers must be knowledgeable of best practices for resume writing and what hiring professionals look for to develop client documents that draw attention to their resume and secure more interviews.
Ability to work with a high degree of flexibility and accountability. Writers are not assigned work, but rather, are able to request jobs according to interest and ability to develop quality results based on the client’s career field and other information provided upon placing an order.
Ability to work with a lot of autonomy. TopStack provides highly recommended guidelines / resources that have proven to be successful in the business. We do, however, also allow a lot of discretion as well to encourage writers to find a process that works best for their writing style, availability, etc.
Ability to operate in a remote setting and learn/apply new software programs. Each internal system that we use (Gmail, Slack, Trello, and Team Website) integrates with the other to seamlessly complete orders from start to finish. Writers must be able to navigate between programs to be successful in the business.
Ability to build and maintain relationships with clients primarily via email. As most interaction done with the company will be via email, writers must have excellent communication skills to build a certain level of trust to ensure clients are confident in the process, work being produced, and achievement of career goals. In addition to producing quality results, consistent communication and follow-up is key to converting jobs to paid orders.
That's all for now.
